Cam Newton appeared to get in a fight with a group of guys and he made in nd of a career change.
The former Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots quarterback appeared to get into a brawl during a 7-on-7 football tournament with a TSP crew on Sunday.
TSP stands for TopShelf Performance, which is an “18U National 7v7 Program,” the crew’s official Instagram bio reads. It is one of the teams participating in the 7-on-7 tournament.
Newton, a former league MVP with a 6-foot-5, 245-pound stature, had no problem making easy work when a group of men broke out a fight as he could be seen seemingly separating two — one with each arm — like a parent breaking up a toddler skirmish.
It is unclear if the 34-year-old was breaking up the fight or participating. Atlanta Police has not issued a statement about the altercation yet.
Now, social media users are asking whether Newton should be pursuing a career in MMA with his skills.
